I have a suggestion regarding "usability"..
I had a new server to setup so I added x2go ppa and installed the firefox plugin.
Starting Firefox then going to Tools/Extensions/Plugins I see the newest plugin version is there (see below 1st image).... but clicking on "MORE" on that screen presents the next/2nd Image.
All that screen tells the user is the x2go version number again...?
My suggestion: looking at that 2nd image ..
how hard would it be to include the x2go wiki's URL for configuring the x2goplugin & associated website ??
Seems this would enable people that install the x2go plugin to self-directed toward the rest of the "HOW TO" information to enable it (re the website setup)

Do this for your client system:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/stable
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install x2goclient x2goplugin
The server side versions are fine!

At my server I see version x2goplugin-provider (4.0.0.1-0~352~lucid1)
where I changed inside file /usr/share/x2go/plugin/x2goplugin.html
server= to my virtual host IP where is x2goserver:i386 4.0.0.0-0~640~precise1
The server side versions are fine!
